On the reaction day the stock moved 0.6 pts more than Nifty Microcap 250 and 0.5 pts more than its Other Textile Products peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Surat Trade and Mercantile Ltd (formerly Surat Textile Mills Ltd) announced its audited financial results for Q4 and FY25, approved by the Board on 27th May 2025 with an unmodified auditor opinion from Sharp & Tannan Associates. For the full year, revenue from operations rose to Rs 6,863.70 lakhs from Rs 6,056.37 lakhs (up ~13%), while profit after tax jumped to Rs 1,166.01 lakhs from Rs 907.36 lakhs (up ~28.5%), driven largely by tax adjustments. However, profit before tax fell sharply to Rs 928.59 lakhs from Rs 1,347.27 lakhs (down ~31%), showing significant margin compression, and Q4 alone posted a loss of Rs 399.55 lakhs due to a negative other income line. The company remains debt-free with total equity of Rs 21,682.66 lakhs and continues to hold large investments, though operating cash flow stayed negative at Rs (871.77) lakhs. The Board also approved the re-appointment of Mr. Alok P. Shah as Managing Director for 5 years, and re-appointed internal and secretarial auditors.
Positive on PAT growth (up ~28.5%) and strong balance sheet, but the sharp fall in Q4 profit and continued negative operating cash flow may concern investors. The debt-free, investment-heavy profile provides cushion, though core trading margins are under pressure.
